    Anyone care to elaborate on my performance report? My last sale was on March 3rd...absolutely nothing since then, but plenty of clicks. This has never happened before. It makes me wonder if tracking is completely messed up???

    this may happen, when:

    1. you code has problem, not likely
    2. the shop only deliver US but you send UK visitors
    3. the advertiser just has that such low rates of sale/click
    4. some other shit happens

    How many sales do you normally make? If its not much, then you probbably are experiencing flucuation. Google can be wierd though...

    oh.. god!

    after seeing the screenshot i believe there is some tracking issue as this cannot happen with 456 clicks and no sale not possible

    as i think these days cj is having lot of tracking issue in this month of march - just ask them they will address this as this is probably not normal

    are you using broad phrase or exact match if you are doing ppc?

    As the chap above says, what tracking do you have? You could be being picked up for keywords which have nothing to do with a wii for example

    I see it says website name but is nintendo wii console cheap also a keyword? if so you could be getting traffic which is very untargetted

    Thanks so much for everyone who took time to leave their thoughts on this. I too believe there is a tracking issue involved. I sent email to support and am waiting to hear back.

    Not using any PPC as I am getting organic traffic and sales have been running around $300/month give or take a few bucks.

    Thanks again for your input!

    Wow, that's unfortunate. I've wondered if tracking had been messed up for short period but haven't seen something so sustained. Fortunately, CJ is friendly and I hope they will help you get to the bottom of your request.
